Wel situated.

The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. There are toiletries provided which is always a help. My only complaint is that the room we had was by the kitchen extraction unit. If we stayed again, I would book a room at the front. We were late booking this time. We have stayed twice before and loved it. Just unlucky this time. I woild still recommend, just check out the room beforehand. The hotel is really wel situated and the food is very good.

A wonderful location right on the Dee Estuary. Although there’s no flowing water we sat on the terrace and enjoyed a glass of wine in the evening sun and watched the world and wildlife go by. Our evening meal was great as was breakfast. A lovely big room, very clean and comfortable. All in all a great stay.
